Wagga Race 5

Bidgee Christmas Cup Heat 1 H

Stake: $3,421

SWEET BEGONIA (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (25.58) at Shepparton behind Super Nugget in a Grade 5. Took the lead and boxed on but run over. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from five starts. Can go on with it. BALMORAL QUEEN (3) missed the frame latest when fifth at Wentworth Park (30.28) but scored four back at this track (30.19). Will give the top chances plenty to think about. SCATTER DUNN (8) was strongly supported last start when a short priced favourite and duly saluted winning by 4 lengths at Goulburn in a handy 24.69. Outside box to overcome but likes the trip. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Should feature again. ZIPPING WHEELER (6) can sneak into the finish.

Eye-catching performance to score by 1.75 lengths in a Mix last start at this track, recording a good 30.40 over the 525m journey. Expected to feature if runs up to that effort.
